Anxiety Summit 6

Alliance Member Hyla Cass, MD will be speaking at the Anxiety Summit 6. In her interview,  "SSRIs, Benzodiazepines, Alcohol and Amino Acids," I will share how benzodiazepines (a class of anti-anxiety medications that include Xanax, Ativan, Valium and others) are: "strongly associated with all cause mortality, including suicide, even when used for short durations of treatment." So is it worth adding this risk to the others in taking benzodiazepines? Your doctor sure didn't tell you about all this when they prescribed it, either.
